Our customer is a well-established pharmaceutical manufacturer in Malaysia, focused on syrup production and compliant with local GMP standards. They discovered our company through online research and sought a more cost-effective filtration solution for their multiple production lines.

The customer operates multiple syrup production lines, with a series of filter housings running at below 30℃.

Previously, they used disposable PP filter cartridges. According to their SOP, these filter cartridges can only be used for 30 days from opening, a maximum of 9 batches, or up to 12 hours after cleaning completion.

As the customer stated:

“Replacing the filter every 9 batches increases our production cost, so we are planning to shift to reusable SS filter cartridges without impacting the quality of the product.”

Frequent replacement resulted in high material and labor costs, unplanned downtime, and potential quality risks from fiber shedding, which significantly affected overall production efficiency.

We provided food-grade 316L stainless steel filter cartridges as a direct replacement for the original PP filter cartridges. The new filter cartridges fit existing housings with no piping or equipment modifications required.

Our stainless steel filter cartridges offer:

•   Reusable and washable structure for longer service life
•   No fiber shedding, ensuring syrup purity and GMP compliance
•   Stable performance at below 30℃
•   Full compatibility with the customer’s SOP and cleaning procedures
•  

•   Extended service life from 9 batches to over 60 batches per use cycle
•   Reduced annual filter cartridge consumption by more than 70%
•   Eliminated unplanned downtime and stabilized multi-line production
•   Maintained consistent syrup quality with no impact on product properties
•   Fully compliant with internal SOP and pharmaceutical standards

“Switching to Pullner’s stainless steel filter cartridges has greatly cut our production costs and reduced frequent replacements. The filtration performance is stable and has no impact on our syrup quality. We are very satisfied with this solution.”

— Production Manager, Malaysian Pharmaceutical Company
